7太七21~23 不是每一个对我说,主啊,主啊的人,都能进诸天的国,唯独实行我诸天之上父旨意的人,才能进去。当那日,许多人要对我说,主啊,主啊,我们不是在你的名里预言过,在你的名里赶鬼过,并在你的名里行过许多异能么?那时,我要向他们宣告:我从来不认识你们……。
7Matt. 7:21-23 Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, will enter into the kingdom of the heavens, but he who does the will of My Father who is in the heavens. Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, was it not in Your name that we prophesied, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name did many works of power? And then I will declare to them: I never knew you…
8马太七章二十一节……不是指今天诸天之国的实际,乃是指将来国度的实现。我们要进诸天的国,需要作两件事:呼求主,并实行天父的旨意。呼求主够叫我们得救(罗十13),但要进诸天的国,还需要实行天父的旨意。因此,不是每一个说主啊,主啊的人,都能进诸天的国,唯独那些呼求主,且实行天父旨意的人,才能进去。
8Matthew 7:21 does not refer to the reality of the kingdom of the heavens today but to the coming manifestation of the kingdom in the future. To enter into the kingdom of the heavens we need to do two things: call on the Lord and do the will of the heavenly Father. To call on the Lord suffices for us to be saved (Rom. 10:13), but to enter into the kingdom of the heavens we also need to do the will of the heavenly Father. Hence, not everyone who says, “Lord, Lord,” will enter into the kingdom of the heavens; but those who call on the Lord and do the will of the heavenly Father will enter in.
9进诸天的国,既然还要实行天父的旨意,就显然与借着重生进神的国不同(约三35)。进神的国是借着神圣生命的出生,进诸天的国是借着神圣生命的生活(马太福音生命读经,三三六页)。
9Since entering into the kingdom of the heavens also requires doing the will of the heavenly Father, it is clearly different from entering into the kingdom of God through regeneration (John 3:3, 5). This latter entrance is gained through being born of the divine life; the former, through the living of that life. (Life-study of Matthew, 2nd ed., p. 284)

10在〔国度〕宪法的最后一段,不再是论到消极的方面,诸如我们的脾气、情欲、己、肉体和忧虑;而完全是论到积极的方面,就是实行天父的旨意。国度子民不是为着别的,乃是为着实行父的旨意。我们在这里不仅仅是为着胜过我们的脾气、情欲、己、肉体,也不仅仅是为着善待并同情别人。我们在这里乃是为着成就天父的旨意。要实行父的旨意,我们需要走狭路。在属世哲学家的教训里,既没有神圣的生命、神圣的性情,也没有神圣的路。但在这里,诸天之国宪法的终极结果,乃是天父的旨意。这就是说,我们有一位天父,我们是父的儿子。在宪法的最后一段,不仅是生命的事,也是父旨意的事。我们的父有一个旨意要成就,但这旨意只能借着祂的生命才能成就。我们需要活在天父的生命里,并且凭着这生命而活。这种生活乃是为着实行父的旨意。……父的旨意就是要把召会建造在子这块磐石上。这在使徒行传、书信和启示录里得着充分的发展。新约启示出神那神圣、永远的旨意,就是要建造召会。
10In this last section of the [kingdom] constitution, it is no longer a negative matter of dealing with our temper, lust, self, flesh, and anxiety. It is absolutely a positive matter of doing the will of the Father who is in the heavens. The kingdom people are not for anything other than doing the will of the Father. We are not here merely to overcome our temper, our lusts, our self, and our flesh, and to be kind and sympathetic to others. We are here for the accomplishment of the will of the heavenly Father. In order to do the will of the Father, we need to walk on the constricted way. In the teachings of the worldly philosophers, there is neither the divine life and divine nature nor the divine way. But here the ultimate issue of the constitution of the kingdom of the heavens is the will of the heavenly Father. This means that we have a heavenly Father and that we are the Father’s sons. However, in the last section of the constitution it is not only a matter of life but also a matter of the will of the Father. Our Father has a will to accomplish, but we can accomplish it only by His life. We need to live in the life of the heavenly Father and also by that life. This kind of living is for the doing of the Father’s will…The Father’s will is to build the church upon the Son as the rock. This is fully developed in Acts, the Epistles, and the book of Revelation. The New Testament reveals that God’s divine, eternal will is to build up the church.
11在马太七章二十二节,……“那日”一辞是指基督审判台的日子(林前三13四5林后五10)。在审判的日子,所有的信徒都要站在基督的审判台前,许多人要对主说,他们在主的名里预言过、赶鬼过并且行过异能,但他们要被主拒绝。
11[In Matthew 7:22] the words that day refer to the day of the judgment seat of Christ (1 Cor. 3:13; 4:5; 2 Cor. 5:10). On the day of judgment, when all the believers will stand before the judgment seat of Christ, many will say to the Lord that they prophesied, cast out demons, and did works of power in His name, but they will be rejected by the Lord.
12马太七章二十三节……这里的认识,意思是称许。罗马七章十五节将同一字译为认可。在这一节保罗说,“因为我所行出来的,我不认可。”主从来不称许那些在祂的名里,却不照着天父的旨意(太七21)预言、赶鬼并行许多异能的人(22)。主不否认他们作了那些事,但祂认为那些事是不法的,因为不是照着天父的旨意作的,与神圣的旨意不一致。……因此,他们即使在主的名里作了那些事,也不能进诸天的国,却要“离开”主,就是在来世被拒于国度的实现之外(马太福音生命读经,三三七至三三九页)。
12The word knew [in Matthew 7:23] means “approved.” The same Greek word in Romans 7:15 is translated “acknowledge.” In this verse Paul says, “What I work out, I do not acknowledge.” The Lord never approved those who, in His name, prophesied, cast out demons, and did many works of power, but did those things not according to the will of the heavenly Father (Matt. 7:21). The Lord did not deny that they did those things, but He considered those things lawlessness because they were not done in line with the will of the heavenly Father. They were not done in the line of the divine will…Thus, those who do such things, even in the Lord’s name, will not enter into the kingdom of the heavens but will depart from the Lord, that is, be excluded from the manifestation of the kingdom in the coming age. (Life-study of Matthew, 2nd ed., pp. 285-286)

今日要点
14主题:要完成神永远的定旨,就要实行父的旨意
14
15引经:太七21~23
15
161.要完成神永远的定旨,就要实行父的旨意:
16
17A.当我们认识神永远的定旨之后,若要过为着完成神永远定旨的生活,就必须认识并实行神的旨意,若我们在来世要进入诸天之国的实现,今世就必须 实行我们父的旨意,在太七21主说,『不是每一个对我说,主阿,主阿的人,都能进诸天的国,惟独实行我在诸天之上父旨意的人, 才能进去』,这指出呼求主名叫我们得救,而实行神的旨意才能进诸天的国。
17
18B.这一段话,可说是主所颁布国度宪法的最后一段,不再论到消极的脾气、情欲、己、肉体和忧虑,而完全是论到积极的方面,就是实行天父的旨意,主 呼召人跟随祂,不是仅仅是为着胜过脾气、情欲、己、肉体,也不仅是为着善待并同情别人,而是为着实行父的旨意,成就父神的旨意。
18
192.神许可的旨意与神纯全的旨意不同:
19
20A.有人对于这段经文感到困惑,因为约翰三章给我们看见,重生就能进神的国,但我们需要看见,在马太七章所说进诸天的国,既然还要实行天父的 旨意,就显然与借着重生进神的国不同,因为进神的国是借着神圣生命的出生,而进诸天的国,则是借着神圣生命的生活,虽然我们可能已经从神而 生,却可能没有凭神圣生命而生活行动。
20
21B.所以主接着斥责那些在祂的名里预言过,赶鬼过,并行过许多异能的人,因为他们这些『行不法的人』作那些事,是出于他们自己,不是因顺服神 的旨意而作,主说,我不认识你们,意思是我不称许你们,虽然主不否认他们在主名里也预言也赶鬼,但那仅是在主许可的旨意里作的,而不是 在神纯全的旨意里作的,所以主认为那些事是不法的。
21
22应用:在每次的追求中,我们都该停一停,到主面前蒙主光照,使我们看见神许可的旨意和神纯全旨意之间的不同,而不断地对付里面出于自己的意图 ,而能够实行父的旨意,成功神的定旨。
